Telesin New Design 3m Carbon Fiber Selfie Stick 3.0 Review

The Telesin New Design 3m Carbon Fiber Selfie Stick 3.0 changes where you can place an action camera. Its eight telescoping sections reach from 44 cm to 3 m, giving a small camera a much higher or farther viewpoint than a compact handgrip. We recommend it for creators who want a deliberate overhead view, a wider group frame or a compatible 360-camera angle, and who are comfortable handling a long pole.

The exact product checked here is model GP-MNP-300-3. Telesin’s US store listed it at $63.99 when checked on October 23, 2026. Code AHOEHNHM reduced the exact single-item cart by $9.59 to $54.40 before tax and shipping. Match the mount to your camera and confirm the adapters in the current package before ordering; the seller’s compatibility claims are broad and do not name every camera generation.

Reach for a different camera angle

A three-metre pole is useful when the camera needs to sit above a group, look down over a scene or move farther from the person holding it. With compatible 360 cameras, a pole can also disappear from the stitched view when the camera’s lens coverage and stitching support that effect. Telesin markets this use, but the result depends on your camera and how you position it; the stick itself does not make every camera invisible.

The 44 cm minimum gives you a shorter setting for closer framing, while the full 300 cm extension is suited to more planned shots. You can choose an intermediate height, which helps avoid extending every section when a little extra reach is enough. A fixed tripod or gimbal is a better tool when you need hands-free support or controlled movement at a stable height. Our tripod-versus-gimbal guide explains those different jobs, and our tripod buying guide covers base support.

Extend and lock it section by section

The official user guide describes eight locking sections. Extend the pole to the height you need, then twist each section to lock it; loosen the sections before collapsing the stick. The guide cautions against shaking the pole while extended. Use a controlled motion and check each lock before lifting a camera overhead, especially if you are working near people or valuable equipment.

At full extension, the pole is long and narrow. One buyer comment on Telesin’s product page reports visible flex when an Insta360 X4 was held horizontally at maximum length. That is a single user’s experience, not a CameraTested measurement, but it illustrates the tradeoff: this is a reach tool rather than a rigid boom. A shorter extension or angled movement is a better fit when steadiness matters more than height.

Check the mount and adapters

Telesin advertises the stick for GoPro, Insta360 and DJI action cameras and describes a three-jaw adapter for action cameras. The current listing does not provide a camera-by-camera compatibility matrix, so check the mount on your exact model and the adapters shown in the selected package. Similar-looking action cameras can use different cages or mounting pieces.

The product page also mentions a removable 1/4-inch bolt adapter for smartphones, but it does not give a clear package-contents list for a phone holder. A bare 1/4-inch thread cannot secure a phone by itself. If you want to film with a phone, confirm that a compatible clamp and adapter are included or budget for a separate holder.

At the bottom, the guide identifies a 1/4-inch threaded port for attaching a tripod base. That adds a possible connection point, but the thread is not a tripod base and the listing does not establish that one is included. Add a compatible base if you need the pole to stand on its own, and treat the assembly as a tall, narrow support that needs a stable surface.

What the listing does and does not establish

The official guide confirms the 44–300 cm range, eight sections, twist-lock operation, carbon-fiber construction and lower tripod thread. The current listing’s weight fields conflict with an older Telesin store listing, so we leave an exact weight out of this review. The page does not establish a waterproof rating or a complete package list, either. Do not treat the pole as weather-sealed or assume a phone clamp, tripod base or every camera adapter comes in the box.

For other action-camera jobs, our Telesin ND16 filter kit review for Insta360 X6 covers a dedicated exposure accessory. That filter controls incoming light; this selfie stick changes the camera’s position. They solve different problems, so choose based on whether your footage needs a new angle or a slower-shutter option in bright conditions.

Buying recommendation

The GP-MNP-300-3 is a useful choice when an action camera needs to reach well beyond arm’s length and you can work carefully with a long pole. Its adjustable range is the main appeal, and its lower tripod thread gives you another mounting option with a separate compatible base. Confirm the camera mount, the exact adapters and your expected working height before deciding; choose a shorter grip or support when rigidity and a fixed setup matter more.

On October 23, 2026, the US listing showed $63.99 for this SKU. In an isolated one-item cart, AHOEHNHM reduced it by $9.59 to $54.40 before tax and shipping. We removed the item without placing an order. Check the current availability and cart total, then see the Telesin offer page for the partner code details.
